GENETIC ARCHITECTURE OF QUANTITATIVE TRAITS IN BEEF CATTLE REVEALED BY GENOME WIDE ASSOCIATION STUDIES OF IMPUTED WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCE VARIANTS: I: FEED EFFICIENCY AND COMPONENT TRAITS

Abstract Background Genome wide association studies (GWAS) on residual feed intake (RFI) and its component traits including daily dry matter intake (DMI), average daily gain SUNGLASSES (ADG), and metabolic body weight (MWT) were conducted in a population of 7573 animals from multiple beef cattle breeds based on 7,853,211 imputed whole genome sequen

This paper proposes a method for Panier Bike Seats solving the path planning problem for a collaborative robot.The time-optimal, smooth, collision-free B-spline path is obtained by the application of a nature-inspired optimization algorithm.The proposed approach can be especially useful when moving items that are delicate or contain a liquid in an

Abstract Background The expansion of raw protein sequence databases in the post genomic era and availability of fresh annotated sequences for major localizations particularly motivated us to introduce a new improved version of our previously forged eukaryotic subcellular localizations prediction method namely "ESLpred".Since, subcellular localizati

Volunteered geographic information (VGI) has great potential to reveal spatial and temporal dynamics of geographic phenomena.However, a variety of potential biases in VGI are recognized, many of which root from volunteer data contribution activities.Examining patterns in volunteer data contribution activities helps understand the biases.Using eBird

Abstract Background Recently developed iron cocatalyst enhancement of dilute acid pretreatment of biomass is a promising approach for enhancing sugar release from recalcitrant lignocellulosic biomass.However, very little is known about the underlying mechanisms of this enhancement.In the current study, our aim was to identify several essential fact
